I sold a car, bought my daughter a car, and I have $2000 left to play with. Just looking for ideas to make it stretch the most I can.

Bone stock, black 2012 Sport, 6 spd. So far the stickers are gone, bed lined grill, and I have an extra bumper to do the stubby with so I don't cut mine up.

It is my daily driver for work and such, but won't be making any highway trips in it. Will see its fair share of mud, trails etc. but not a rock crawler by any means.

I'm thinking 33x12.5 Duratracs, (there goes half of my budget), on either black stock wheels, or D windows.

Leaning toward a 2.5 BB.

So if you had a bone stock JK and only $2000 to play with, what would you do?

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

 

I had the same budget pretty much last week.

Went with (5) Nitto Trail Grapplers 295s. TF Level Kit, spacers, and some recovery gear.

 

Small lift, gussets (and possibly sleeves), and a pair of truetracs.

 

It depends what you want to do with it in the long run. Think out your build and research so you don't end up doing things twice. If there's even a chance that you might want to go bigger than 33" tires I would hold off and save up for that

 

I would go with the tires and stock wheels some wheel spacers and prefer the TF 2.5" lift with bilsteins from ORW

 

I would have the time of my life at the Bunny Ranch then drive back home in my bone stock JK.

 

That's great! Lol

 

Actually two grand might even get you a few girls, but you have to have enough for a doctor visit afterwards

 

This made me LOL! Honesty is a lost art.

 

I'm on the same page as you are, what I'm going to do is put my $2000 into a good lift! And then save up for tires.
